US MERMAN

Founded in California by designer and master swimmer Edison Cortez, US Merman merges performance-driven swimwear with a distinctly fashion-forward sensibility. Drawing on more than two decades of experience spanning costume design and custom work for entertainment and athletic clients, Cortez approaches swimwear through the lens of movement, precision, and visual impact. Every collection is designed and manufactured in the United States using premium chlorine-resistant fabrics, four-way stretch nylon blends, UV-protective finishes, and anti-microbial performance materials engineered for both competition and leisure.

Inspired by the colors and textures of marine life, US Merman has developed a recognizable aesthetic centered on bold aquatic prints, sculpted racing briefs, mesh detailing, and streamlined silhouettes that balance athletic function with confident self-expression. The brand’s meticulous development process — with each style undergoing extensive testing and refinement — reflects its commitment to durability, fit, and technical excellence.

Positioned within the premium swimwear market, US Merman retail prices range approximately from $70–$85 USD, offering elevated designer swimwear for customers seeking performance, individuality, and contemporary American-made craftsmanship.
